BIRD WATCHING THIS THANKSGIVING BY LORALE,E MARSHALL HOME ECONOMIST Thanksgiving is cer- tainly a wonderful time of year, but make sure your feast is a safe one. Every year, thousands of Canadians become unnecessary victims of food -borne illness. Most of these could have been avoided by following safe food handling or cooking practices . • These are particularly, important during the festive season. Here are a few safety guidelines for handling turkey from the food consultants at Agriculture Canada's Food Advisory Division. Unwrap the fresh --turkey when you get it home and wrap it loosely in waxed paper or aluminum foil. Store the giblets and the -uncooked fresh meat separately in the coldest part of the refrigerator. Always cook the fresh turkey within three days of purchase.. If the meat is frozen, leave the plastic wrapper on. The refrigerator is the ideal place for thawing, as it keeps poultry cold until it's completely thawed. Allow about 10 hours per kilogram or five hours per pound and cook within 24 hours of thawing. When thawing in cold water, immerse the bird, in its original wrapping, in water changed several times during thawing. Allow about two hours per kilogram or one hour per pound and cook it within 24 hours. To thaw at ,room • temperature, silt the wrapping along the back and place the bird on a rack on a tray to drain as it thaws. For more even thawing, place the wrapped turkey in a brown paper bag. Allow three hoursper kilogram or one and a half hour per pound. Cook it im- mediately or refrigerate, and cook within 24 hours. Don cave 't 1 't� a_ room.

In any case, be sure to wash in hot soapy water all utensils and counters that the bircktouches ands dispose of the drippy wrappings with care. For example, if preparing the raw bird on a cutting board, wash the board and knife thoroughly before starting to prepare another food, especially if the second food is to be eaten raw. And, of course, scrub your hands well. Cook thawed_ turkey in the same way and for the same length of time as a fresh bird. If you prefer to stuff it, do so just before roasting. Check for doneness by using ' a meat ther- mometer. A temperature of 70 degrees C (165 degrees F) in the stuffing or 85 degrees C (185 degrees F) in the thigh is your indication that, the turkey is ready for the table. Remove any leftover' stuffing from the bird and chill or freeze, It will keep two to three days in the refrigerator or two months in the freezer. Chill or freeze the cooked meat within two ho,urs or refrigerate up to three or four days. To freeze, remove the bones and the excess fat from the large pieces. Or slice and cover with gravy, sauce or broth. It may be kept frozen one month if not covered with liquid; otherwise, it can be stored frozen for thr=ee months.

In a 1979 study by the RDOP for the Federation they found highest foreign ownership in Ashfield Township, 2,123 acres and Howick Township 1,637 acres. Recent purchases in Colborne and other townships may add more to the list. These pur- chases tend to be large holdings of high quality farm land. One of the Federation's concerns is what these large un- tenanted holdings. will do to the rural community. The Federation wants to do more than study y the, problem. In the . _past year, foreign purchasing has appeared to ac- celerate. At the Sep- tember regional meeting Huron County Federation Need a speaker?
